Best way to transfer designs to surface | Airbrush by Igor Amidzic

Best way to transfer designs to surface
Things you need:
Pencil
Exacto knife
Baking paper
We like to use ordinary baking paper for this purpose
It's pretty transparent, so you can see through it and it cuts very nicely with a blade.
First place your paper on the surface you're about to paint.
Mark the edges of the surface, so you know how big your design can be and choose a good center point for your design.
Draw your sketch. You can also print it out, or just copy it onto the baking paper from your computer screen,
but drawing is always best if you want to get more confortable in creating art.
You only need a few guide lines, do not over do it! You will only cripple yourself from advancing.
Use your knife to cut loosely on the lines of your design. You don't have to take any parts of the paper out.
We like to use a piece of glass as our cutting mat.
You will notice your lines are much straighter when cutting then when drawing with a pencil.
Place your design on the painting surface and find the best position for it. Stick it with a few pieces of tape so it
stays in place. Don't over do it with the tape because you need to be able to lift the paper to check if you missed a
spot somewhere.
Get your airbrush out and spray over your lines. Use thicker paint, and spray at about 30 psi. Periodically check if everything
looks good.
If you missed cutting an important line with the knife, you can place a piece of cardboard under it and cut it without moving
your design from place.
Remove the paper, and that's it! You have transferred your guidelines onto the surface! Congrats!
Now we're going to ad the moon in a place we like and start roughly filling out the design with some reduced paint.

Sorry about the brightness guys, it may be hard to read some parts. We'll fix that in the next one. :)

[@TrueFFranco]

It’s incredible how with just the first white pass the thing looks so real , 🤭🤭 and just more impressed everyday 😀😀.

[@robgillespie6765]

very informative video.. Can never have too many ways to transfer a design.. Great artwork.. So much detail as always

[@MysticAirbrush]

thank you! :)

[@rosihanbaharudin4891]

Nice work

[@josephalterado6356]

More tutorial plss😍😍😍😍

[@MysticAirbrush]

coming up! :)

[@ttxela]

Pretty slick 👍

[@helmutlorenz4983]

Super 👍

[@Mark-ij5mp]

Igor this was perfect! Exactly what I was looking for. Question, do you use this method on every picture you do? If you do it differently can you explain how and why you choose different methods? Thanks man, perfect tutorial.

[@MysticAirbrush]

Glad to hear that mate! Yes, this is the only method I use. Alex likes to sketch directly on the surface when she paints on canvas and paper. But for me this is the best method.

[@christofdeblock2862]

Thenx this is very helpful 👌🏻

[@MysticAirbrush]

Glad to hear that! :)

[@celticnailsandbeauty4437]

I love this. As a newbie to airbrushing I rely on stencils a lot but really want to be able to free hand my work. I'm not so great at art unless it's a pencil and rubber so this is the perfect middle step for me in my progression and creating more muscle memory. Thank you for sharing. 🙌

[@MysticAirbrush]

Glad to hear this helps you out. It really is the point... to push yourself and advance through that. :) Thank you for your comment!

[@suspensefulness]

muscle memory in creating those small details i need help with

[@ronbasl5577]

great vid , thanks alot . just about had it figured out lol . keep he vids coming

[@MysticAirbrush]

ron basl thanks! will do

[@jodemoel2034]

This is a great idea, especially if you don't have a projector. Do you always use white to mark out, or does it need to be the color you are mainly going to use in the artwork. Thank you for sharing.

[@MysticAirbrush]

Thanks Jo! I try to use the color that will blend with the colors used but also visible while I paint.

[@WW-wt6yl]

is this illustration or opaque white or another brand? cheers!

[@rossansbro9339]

Great stuff,what were you painting on 👍

[@MysticAirbrush]

Thanks Ross! This was a Harley side case.

[@alainohan3620]

Bonjour,c est de l excellent boulot comme d habitude,juste une question je voudrais savoir quelle dilution vous faites pour la peinture. Merci👍👍👍

[@MysticAirbrush]

Thank you alain! Dilution depends on a lot of factors, there will be a video about it. In simple words - more for details, less for covering.

[@alainohan3620]

Ok merci

Sorry about that Craig, it got much brighter after uploading. We'll fix that in the next one. ;)

[@melvinraymasong877]

What kind airbrush is this dude?

[@TrueFFranco]

Melvin Ray Masong I bough the same airbrush and let me tell you , it’s good but not great. It’s a Fengda BD 180. Got one on Aliexpress for $25. Just so you know you will need to polish the needle as soon as you get it as it is very rough and paint will stick to it very easly causing insane clogs. Also you will need seal the whole front head and lube the whole thing.

[@cagedruss]

how about a curved surface?

[@MysticAirbrush]

hi R N. this works on a curved surface also. I use the same technique for helmets. Takes a bit of fiddling but does the job every time.
